Our bodies are the only things we ever truly own, yet most of of us haven't got a clue what they are made of and how they manage to grow, thrive and survive everything we chuck at them. In this delightful little book, the smallest of its kind ever produced, Dr Betts tells the incredible story of the human body, and how it got to where it is today. With useful appendices and a glossary. WOODEN BOOKS are small but packed with information. "...short and witty ...beautiful woodcuts ...a distillation of ancient alchemical tomes ...rich and artful ..." - THE LANCET. "Fascinating" FINANCIAL TIMES. "Beautiful" LONDON REVIEW OF BOOKS. "Genuinely mind-expanding" FORTEAN TIMES. "Excellent" NEW SCIENTIST. "Stunning" NEW YORK TIMES. Small books, big ideas.

Dr Moff Betts has a practice on the Welsh Borders. He is currently ship's doctor on board MV Invincible with the team attempting to land on Rockall in June 2005. http://www.therockalltimes.co.uk/rockall-ho/2005-team.html
